Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 99

He was conked out, sweating bullets,

but his temperature was normal.

She felt bushed, so she lay down next to him and before she knew it, she was out like a light too.

At, three in the afternoon,

Violette woke up, with a growling

stomach.

She hopped out of bed, got dressed, and got out of the room.

The bodyguard and driver were loafing around on the couch, watching TV.

Albina was in the kitchen, twiddling around with her phone.

The vibe seemed chill.

Except, it felt like someone else had taken over her place.

"Violette, you’re probably famished, right?" Albina put her phone down and brought out some leftovers.

Violette sauntered over to the living room and told the driver, "Elijah will probably wake up soon, you might want to fetch a clean set of clothes."

The driver sprang to his feet, "Sure thing."

After the driver left, Violette switched off the TV and told the bodyguard, "My mom’s got migraines, she can’t deal with noise. Please keep it down while you’re here."

The bodyguard didn’t dare to argue.

After all, their boss Elijah was still snoozing in her bed.

They had no clue when Elijah would wake up.

What if he sleeps till night?

...

The bodyguard was on pins and needles. It was already dark as a dungeon around six in the evening, but there was no sign of Elijah stirring in the room.

Albina and Violette had a chat, "Violette, I think I’ll crash at a hotel tonight."

Violette obviously wouldn’t agree, "Mom, I’ll just wake him up, it’s no biggie."

Bodyguard: "He’s sick! He needs rest. Don’t disturb him!"

Violette shot a glare at the bodyguard, "This is my house!"

The bodyguard turned to Albina, "Ms. Palmer, I’ll foot the bill for your hotel!"

On hearing this, Elijah mumbled, "I’m feeling dizzy..."

Violette: "Quit playing possum! I just checked, you don’t have a fever!"

Elijah started coughing, l

ike he was about to cough up a lung.

Violette bit her lip and stopped talking.

Although he didn’t have a fever anymore, his complications hadn’t gotten any better.

She left the room to fetch the driver.

"Mr. Bourne is awake, but he says he can’t get up..."

Driver: "If he can’t get up, let him rest. I’ll go get his meds."

After saying that, the driver left.

Violette rubbed her temples.

Was she really having him over for the night?
